16 Parenting Tips for Helping Your Student Grow in Self-esteem
A solid sense of self-worth now – in middle school – can grow into a lifetime benefit. It can have a far-reaching impact on your youngster’s future career in terms of finding fulfillment in the adult world of work.
This self-confidence book shows how to build (and protect) that foundation of positive self-regard which, without support, can easily crack in an age of bullying, negative social media posts, and disregard for diversity.
Career Book 2 is a comprehensive blueprint that empowers parents and counselors to prepare youngsters (ages 11-13) with disabilities to gain meaningful employment as adults. It is based on National Career Development Guidelines (NCDG). In this book, you will discover:

Hasse says, “My disabilities, while they have made life tougher for me to live, have also, within certain contexts, become an aggregate advantage for me in gaining meaningful employment in integrated settings. My disability has given me an edge in developing my career. Career Book 2 shows what worked for me in middle school.”
